The colorful language of Australian flowers [PDF]

open access: yesCommunicative & Integrative Biology, 2014
The enormous increase in phylogenetic information in recent years has allowed many old questions to be reexamined from a macroevolutionary perspective. We have recently considered evolutionary convergence in floral colors within pollination syndromes, using bird-pollinated species in Australia.

Indirect Selection on Flower Color in Silene littorea

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2020
Flower color, as other floral traits, may suffer conflicting selective pressures mediated by both mutualists and antagonists. The maintenance of intraspecific flower color variability has been usually explained as a result of direct selection by biotic ...

The Absence of Malvidin-3-Glucoside in Petiole Tissue Predicts Rare Red-Type Flower of Eastern Redbud (Cercis canadensis L.)

open access: yesAgriculture, 2023
Eastern redbud, Cercis canadensis L., is a popular ornamental tree in the U.S. and has flower colors of purple-type, red-type, and white-type. Most redbuds cultivars have purple-type flowers. Red-types and white-types are much less common.

Flower color preferences of insects and livestock: effects on Gentiana lutea reproductive success [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2016
Angiosperms diversification was primarily driven by pollinator agents, but non-pollinator agents also promoted floral evolution. Gentiana lutea shows pollinator driven flower color variation in NW Spain.

Flower Color Evolution and the Evidence of Pollinator-Mediated Selection

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2021
The evolution of floral traits in animal-pollinated plants involves the interaction between flowers as signal senders and pollinators as signal receivers.

Gamma rays and EMS induced Flower Color Mutation in Grasspea (Lathyrus sativus Linn.)

open access: yesJournal of Agricultural Sciences, 2017
To induce flower color mutants in Grasspea (Lathyrus sativus Linn.) variety “Pusa-24“, the fresh seeds were exposed to 4 different doses of gamma radiation as physical mutagens (100, 200, 300 and 400 Gy) and treated with 4 different concentration of ...

Genetic determinants of the flower color transition trait in autotetraploid rose populations

open access: yesScientia Horticulturae
Some roses exhibit a unique phenotype that we call flower color transition. Roses that have this phenotype have flowers with petals that transition from a light yellow to a dark pink/red color as the flower ages.
